Moosier Inc. has been in operation for 3 years and uses the FIFO method of pricing inventory. During the fourth year, Moosier changes to the average-cost method for all its inventory. How will Moosier report this change?
Bojangle Incorporated adopted the dollar-value LIFO method last year. Last year's ending inventory was $53,700. The ending inventory for the current year at year-end (FIFO) cost is $99,000 and on a dollar-value LIFO basis is $93,630. Based on this information, prepare the journal entry required to adjust Bojangle's ending inventory from FIFO to a dollar-value LIFO basis.
